Bethany Man Sentenced to Prison on Sodomy Charges

BETHANY, MO – A Bethany man convicted for transporting child pornography in federal court will not serve additional prison time on state sodomy charges.

Twenty-four year old Ethan Matthew Lamberson entered a guilty plea to two counts of sodomy in Harrison County on Thursday. The Court sentenced Lamberson to four year in prison on each charge to run at the same time as his federal prison sentence.

Lamberson was sentenced to 75 months in federal prison followed by 10 years of supervised release on child pornography charges by a Tennessee federal court in February. Charges stem from a 2020 federal child pornography investigation. Lamberson was arrested in August of 2020 on state charges and later indicted in the Eastern District Court of Tennessee in Chattanooga.
